This article deals with Radiation damage due to ionizing radiation on physical objects. ==Causes== This radiation may take several forms: *Cosmic rays and subsequent energetic particles caused by their collision with the atmosphere and other materials. *Radioactive daughter products (radioisotopes) caused by the collision of cosmic rays with the atmosphere and other materials, including living tissues. *Energetic particle beams from a particle accelerator. *Energetic particles or electro-magnetic radiation (X rays) released from collisions of such particles with a target, as in an X ray machine or incidentally in the use of a particle accelerator. *Particles or various types of rays released by radioactive decay of elements, which may be naturally occurring, created by accelerator collisions, or created in a nuclear reactor. They may be manufactured for therapeutic or industrial use or be released accidentally by nuclear accident, or released sententially by a dirty bomb, or released into the atmosphere, ground, or ocean incidental to the explosion of a nuclear weapon for warfare or nuclear testing. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Radiation damage」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
